RAC, The Knocks Loyola Marymount University : 8:00 p.m. April 12

Levitated Mass Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) : Every Mon., Tue., Thu., Fri., Sat., Sun.
Just when you thought you'd figured out what art really is, Levitated Mass by Michael Heizer is where modern art and the Protestant work ethic weirdly intersect, which is to say that a 340-ton granite megalith painstakingly transported over two weeks from Riverside sits in a 456-foot-long slot,...
